Countries by Electric Vehicle New Car Market Share 2024

About This Dataset

Countries ranked by the percentage of new passenger cars sold that were fully electric (BEV) in 2024, according to IEA Global EV Outlook and national registration data. Norway has achieved a remarkable transition — over 90% of all new cars sold in 2024 were fully electric, driven by a combination of generous purchase incentives, toll exemptions, free parking in cities, and some of the world's most comprehensive public charging networks.

✨ AI Insight

The gap between Norway's remarkable 92% EV market share and Germany's 18% underscores the varying levels of commitment and infrastructure development across countries. While Norway benefits from a robust combination of incentives and charging infrastructure, nations like Germany and China, despite their large automotive industries, lag significantly behind. China's 38% share indicates a growing acceptance of EVs, but still pales in comparison to Nordic leaders. The trend suggests that countries with strong government support and public awareness are more likely to transition rapidly to electric vehicles, highlighting the importance of policy in driving market change.
